Acquisitions

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2021

Consistent with the Company’s strategy to continue its expansion of pawn stores in strategic markets, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company acquired 28 pawn stores in the U.S. in two separate transactions. The aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions totaled $50.7 million, net of cash acquired and subject to future post-closing adjustments. The aggregate purchase price was composed of $48.4 million in cash paid at closing and remaining short-term amounts payable to the sellers of approximately $2.3 million.

The purchase price of each of the 2021 acquisitions was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon the estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition. The excess purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill. The goodwill arising from these acquisitions consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and the pawn stores acquired. These acquisitions were not material individually or in the aggregate to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary, as the Company is gathering information to finalize the valuation of these assets and liabilities. The preliminary allocation of the aggregate purchase prices for these individually immaterial acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2021 is as follows (in thousands):


Pawn loans	$	5,658
Pawn loan fees receivable	306

Inventories	5,481
Other current assets	161
Property and equipment	839
Goodwill (1)	38,920
Intangible assets	620

Current liabilities	(1,271)


Aggregate purchase price	$	50,714

(1)Substantially all of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for U.S. income tax purposes.

The results of operations for the acquired stores have been consolidated since the respective acquisition dates. During 2021, revenue from the acquired stores was $3.7 million and the loss from the combined acquisitions since the acquisition dates (including $0.9 million of transaction and integration costs, net of tax) was approximately $0.1 million.
